Arkansas wing target Zhaire Smith has set one official visit and plans to visit two other schools.
Smith, 6-5, 190, of Garland (Texas) Lakeview Centennial plans to visit Texas next weekend. He said he expects the Horns to extend an offer during the trip.
He has scholarship offers from schools like Arkansas, Memphis, Kansas State, Texas Tech, Tulsa, Rice University, Georgia Tech and others. He also plans to officially visit the Hogs and Texas Tech.
Smith, who has a 42-inch vertical and a 6-9 wingspan, has previously visited UALR and Lamar. He averaged 20.1 points, 6.6 rebounds and 3 assists a game this season. He said he believes his game is similar to former Razorback forward Michael Qualls.

Hobbs also has offers from Oklahoma, Texas A&M, Texas, Ole Miss, Oklahoma State, TCU, Minnesota and others.
